Did Native Americans came from Atlantis ?

Considering the fact that most of historians insist they came from Asia, there are some things which made me "suspect" about this theory..

The first is that Native Americans didn't use the horse in early times.. they started using it only after the colonization at 1600 AD so it's evident that they could not be related with the mongols, born steppe people, and born riders.. the mongols could even sleep in the back of the horse, and mangudai, thier special units could use the arrow in the back of the horse.. also, to survive in a steppe and to travel in such a great space (central asia - usa) you surely need horses. I remember a part from the movie "Attila the Hun" when a Hun warrior told Attila: "Without a horse you are dead in the steppe" .. But the native americans didn't use the horse.. Another fact that I noticed: the Native Americans are red skinned while the mongols are yellow-skinned.. There is no logical explanation for this, because in the USA the climate is not tropical, so the sun can't burn your skin (can't make it red) or more to make that a genetic charachteristic.. I also noticed that The Native Americans have the X - Haplogroup, (many think that it's the Atlantis haplogroup).. This haplogroup also belongs to the Basques, to the Kosovars and Albanians, and all these people are relaeated with Atlantis...Of course, there are not primary sources or facts, but I think that it's enough to open a disscusion about the origins of these noble people !

Best Answer: We didn't come from asia, and most historians actually abandoned that theory a decade ago.
We've been in america over 50,000 years, which is LONG before the last ice age and before Europe was even settled. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/200...

The horse (and camels, wolves, and bison) all originated in America,(and migrated out) but horses went extinct here during the ice age, and were re-introduced by the spanish in the 1500's. Our nation was actually the first to acquire and master them, and yes, we could fight and shoot arrows from horseback. Within one generation of getting horses, we had a mounted cavalry of over 3000, that just astonished the spaniards.

No. Most traditional Native Americans insist they were created here and that is frankly true enough. Atlantis was created either by the Philosopher Plato or by his legendary ancestor Solon the Lawgiver. It is well known and documented elsewhere that the latter studied in Egypt, including at Athens's Sister City of Sais, and that he wrote patriotic odes. Plato says he was told this story there, and on discovering the names had been Egyptianized, found or created Greek equivalents when he took notes to write a patriotic ode about hem -- which he never got around to. Again, Critias was either his maternal grandfather or maternal uncle, and both would have inherited such personal papers of Solon so Plato could have read them. And it's equally possible that it meant an island in the Atlantic (and island it was at the HEART of an empire larger than Africa and Asia (meaning roughly North Africa and Asia Minor) or that the island was either Minoan or Mycenean -- and there are other reasons to believe the latter whether it was Santorini or not.

I won't go into your evidence except to say it's been answered. The point is that MOST of what is written about Atlantis has NOTHING to do with Plato and USUALLY treats as proven fact what HE would have problems accepting as such. He wrote in the days before Objectivity as we know it was possible or even considered desirable: it depends on an easy access to records that even the very wealthy didn't have until the Renaissance. He was an intelligent man and might have problems with it, actually. Most of what's been published since Ignatius Donnelly's Atlantis: The Antediluvian world in the nineteenth century really is fanciful speculation and not worth taking seriously. I will venture to call Madame Blavatsky's writings on it outright fraud and Edgar Cayce's and Rudolf Steiner's -- both of whom claimed the Akashic Records as their source -- as more complex: I neither EXACTLY accept nor reject them. But the idea of Atlantis which we see in the media is garbage and there is no way the Native Americans could have come from there.

Many Mayan words are identical in type and meaning to that of Egypt also some strong correlations to Asia.Mayans are really called the Itzas, whose patriarch is Itzamna the father of the Itzas who saved them from a land of where they came and saved them from the gods of waters, carried them safely across the great deluge and brought them to the western hemisphere. Which indicates why the Mayan calendar begins in the 7th cycle, the previous 7 cycles most likely occurring in the Mayans original homeland, that of the continent of Atlantis.Leaf 74 of the manuscript Dresden represents the Mayan glyph representation of the sinking of Atlantis.

The bridge between Asia and America existed thousands of years before the Mongolia even existed.

The utilization of horses comes from more western areas of Europe whereas eastern civilizations encouraged the use of camels due to greater resilience to nature. Therefore horse use required time to spread and to evolve slightly so that they could survive in Asia.

The skin issue is something that I'm not an expert on but climates between Asia and America are very different especially if you consider that the land bridge connected Alaska to China and therefore the Inuit people are slightly yellowish then they clearly came over from Asia but with the native Americans they would of been the earliest to come across the bridge and having travelled southward to areas that contain consistently higher temperatures then their skin will become darker over time and in addition Asia tends to have periodic monsoon conditions and as such reduces the overall temperature as opposed to fleeting rain due to cloud travel. Of course it could also have been natural selection due to preference.
The last point about the haplogroups I have no idea what you are talking about.

No. I live in a region with many Native Americans and if you presented this argument to any one of them they would laugh at you. Furthermore, if you presented this argument to any scientist you would be laughed at.

its possible most people don't believe in atlantis but it could have existed. horses did live in america but they died out before the europeans came. i have a hard time believing all natives came from Asia. they have darker skin are taller and dont seem fully asian to me.
